About the Role

Echelle Resources is seeking an Automotive Test Technician to support onsite vehicle validation and testing activities in Raymond, Ohio.

This is primarily a hands on validation and testing position, not a software development position. The ideal candidate is dependable, technically curious, comfortable working with vehicles and technology, and able to follow defined testing procedures while accurately documenting results.

An advanced software engineering background is not required. We are looking for someone who is willing to learn, takes ownership of their work, pays attention to detail, and sees tasks through to completion.

Responsibilities

Perform validation and testing on development and prototype vehicles

Follow defined test procedures and execute assigned test cases

Drive development vehicles on designated routes as required

Reproduce reported issues and assist with basic troubleshooting

Perform basic component swaps, software updates, flashing, and configuration when required

Collect logs, photos, videos, and other information needed to document issues

Clearly and accurately document test results and findings

Enter, update, and track issues through established tracking systems

Work with engineering and validation teams to communicate problems and test results

Properly handle and care for development vehicles, test equipment, and components

Adapt to changing testing priorities and daily assignments

Maintain a professional, dependable, and engaged onsite presence

Qualifications

Strong technical aptitude and willingness to learn

Comfortable working with vehicles, computers, electronics, or technical equipment

Ability to follow detailed instructions and established test procedures

Strong attention to detail and documentation skills

Ability to troubleshoot problems logically

Dependable and able to work independently while also functioning as part of a team

Strong written and verbal communication skills

Automotive testing, vehicle service, electronics, diagnostics, hardware troubleshooting, or similar hands on technical experience is helpful but not required

Experience with Android devices, ADB, CAN systems, Jira, test equipment, or embedded systems is a plus

Four year college degree is not required

Driving Requirements

Possess a valid and unrestricted U.S. driver's license

Be able to provide driver's license information for verification

Have regular U.S. driving experience

Be comfortable driving on highways and in normal traffic conditions

Be comfortable driving in rain and varying weather conditions

Be comfortable driving unfamiliar routes and in unfamiliar areas

Be comfortable operating different passenger vehicles, including larger vehicles when required

Additional Requirements

Must be available to work onsite in Raymond, Ohio Monday through Friday

Must be legally authorized to work in the United States for the duration of the assignment

Must be able to successfully complete required background and employment screening

Daily start and stop times may vary depending on testing requirements
